Wisdom from a Roman Catholic Quietist
Alas! how many souls there are full of self, and desirous of doing good and serving God, but in such a way as to suit themselves; who desire to impose rules upon God as to his manner of drawing them to Himself. They want to serve and possess Him, but they are not willing to abandon themselves to Him, and be possessed by Him.

Francois de Salignac de la Mothe Fenelon - "Spiritual Progress"
